Before:


After:



I got the parts from a guy who got it off of a rear totalled 00 FBP SI. It was in absolutely beautiful condition so I payed 450 for it. I got it installed for free and painted for 1/3 the cost of paint. Itll come up to be able 550 or 600 bucks.

A buddy of mine is doing the swap right now, he got parts mostly from people when they got rid of oem for cf, bodykits, projectors, and z3's! Most people don't think they'll ever use the parts again so they let them go for dirt cheap. You might check your local import shop and see what they might have in the back!
